My score includes 34000 bonus points for activating 34 counties.
Thanks to everyone who called this weekend! And a big thanks to my wife,
K5AKS, for driving over 1000 miles around WTX!
I found conditions to generally be poor. Many strong signals but many very
weak signals too. Rapid QSB brought signals up and down. In addition to the
conditions I think I may have an antenna problem. If you were calling and I
couldn't copy I apologize.
This year I used a new feature in CQ/X where the distance to the next county is
calculated along the planned drive path. Last year the distance was a radial
distance which may or may not be very accurate. This year I knew EXACTLY how
far to the next county as well as an estimate of the arrival time based on
current speed. The same applies to any waypoints as well. A great help for
staying on schedule!
My route this year was a bit more ambitious than in the past. Saturday was
just under 600 miles covering 23 counties with Sunday planned to be about 300
miles covering 9 counties. Early Sunday morning I decided to add Yoakum and
Terry which added about 100 miles.
Top callers were: VE3KZ(36), N6MU(32), K8MFO(31), WB9CIF(28), N0TA(27),
N4JF(27), VE3KP(24), KE0G(23), WA3HAE(23), W4UCZ(23), K5KG(22), NC4KW(22),
K4ZGB(21)
Equipment: K3, HS-1500 antenna, 2000 Chev C2500 antenna support.
Again, thanks to everyone for calling and following me around WTX!
73, Alan N5NA
